Pepper! Sprinkle your lawn with lots and lots of pepper!!!!


Even if it doesn't *deter* the cats, you'll hear them sneezing soon enough to chase them off.

My old cat (now gone to cat-heaven) used to run a mile from rustling poly bags. Not very tidy in the garden though....

Thanks for this thread. I have just created a gravel patio and KNOW cats are going to start using it, so I will be borrowing all advice - and hoping to avoid rather messy flapping poly bags.....

Can I be foolish and ask....what do you do with the large bottles of water???

Cheers:beer:

I think you just place around the garden and it stops them from digging and using it as a toilet.

Not "foolish" at all!

The water in the bottle "reflects" light and as it twinkles, it reputedly scares the cat.

I tried a different way of Googling to traf but we seem to have ended up at the same site somehow

Orange scented essential oils and candles work too apparently

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did read or heard somewhere that your own wee is suppose to deter them.

Told hubby he could wee in the bottle and then splash it around the garden :rotfl:

A tad extreme for me.

And this site (that I daren't post about!;)) says they don't like to see they're own reflections Queenie.

Seems they don't like water much
